No Thursday Thirteen Today
For some reason, I couldn't get the Thursday Thirteen code to download, couldn't even get to their site today, and so there will be no Thursday Thirteen until next week. I thought about just listing thirteen things, but decided that might be an infringement of someone's copyright or "idea" and thought it best to postpone my list.
The girls, Jesse and I cleaned the house today and got all of the laundry done. We were thinking, again, of going to Amarillo to see James' and Jesse's dad, but it looks like it will have to wait another week, at least.
Sampson was going to be boarded with our vet and poor Stormy would be left to her litter box and kibble and the cockatiel, Tango, to keep her company. Strange combo, I know, but it's the best we could do!
We're having beef tips over rice with a green salad for dinner. Crockpot beef tips, Minute Rice, and pre-mixed salad - can't beat that for a meal.
It's colder than cold today. I went out to the garage pantry this morning and it took me 5 - 10 minutes to shake the chill from my quick trip out there.
I'm thinking of wrapping Rissy's gifts this weekend. I like to be ahead of the game whenever possible because I never know what tomorrow (or the next day, or the day after that) might bring.
I called Tangi early this morning. Her husband will have surgery at 10am Friday. Exploratory and then repair of the diverticulum. Poor guy. The pain is easier to bear since his IV antibiotics kicked in. She has a place for the children to be this weekend, and so I know she is feeling better about that. Five children and a husband in the hospital - that's a lot of think about.
Better get my meal on the table. I'm breathing more slowly now that I know we aren't going to Amarillo. It's a long drive to spend a short time and try to squeeze in all of the relatives on the list.
I think I'll clean the kitchen after dinner and then hang out in front of the TV and fireplace for the rest of the evening.

That supper sounds yummy!
Brrr...I'm cold with you, although our heat is finally on (thank you, Lord!) Praying for Tangi's hubby this morning.
Oh Cher! You're a total hoot! Thanks for the rhyming hugs today!
